EndNote

EndNote is a bibliographic management tool. It allows you to create your own database of references which you can then search, edit and format automatically in different output styles for bibliographies. The database you create in EndNote is known as a library.

Endnote can also be used to connect directly to Library Catalogues including the MIC catalogue.

EndNote has a feature called “Cite while you Write” which allows you to insert references from your EndNote library directly into a Word document and automatically create a bibliography at the end of the document.
